The crochet version of these booties were such a hit that I wrote a pattern for knitting. These booties will fit 0-3 months.

I made the claws by tying French Knots with doubled up yarn. I wouldn't use beads or buttons, although they would be cute, due to the choking hazard.

Thank you so much for sharing this pattern! I saw it on ravelry. I LOVE it because I've had a couple skeins of the Moda Dea Dream yarn laying around and I was looking for a project to use the yarn. I'm making two pairs for a friend of mine having twins next month. Thanks again for sharing!!
Fuzzy Feet

Hi,
These look quite funny and I'm sure that they'll make great success.
Now we only need some mittens.
Have fun,
